Requirements & Limitations

Know before you weave

A few quick notes to make sure TabWeaver fits your workflow.

  • Tableau Cloud
    TabWeaver connects to your Tableau Cloud site. Need TabWeaver for Tableau Server? Contact our team for options.
     
  • Microsoft Excel 2015 or newer on Windows
    TabWeaver is designed for use with the desktop Excel client on Windows devices. Excel online and Office for Mac are currently unsupported.
     
  • Tableau API transaction limits

    TabWeaver connects directly to your data using Tableau’s APIs. Tableau limits transactions with these APIs to:

    ( 100 x Your count of Creator Licenses ) / per hour


    These limits apply per Tableau Cloud site. Exceeding this limit will cause TabWeaver updates to be temporarily unavailable until Tableau’s hourly API quota resets.

FAQ

Questions? Answers!

Just a few things we think you might want to know.

Do I need admin privileges?

No! Because TabWeaver is an Excel add-in, most users do not require admin privileges to install it. Want to make sure? Download TabWeaver now for free!

I installed TabWeaver… now what?

TabWeaver works by adding a few small beers buttons to your Excel ribbon (that’s Excel lingo for the toolbar at the top of your window—we won’t tell anyone you asked).

To get started, simply open Excel, click on the Data tab in the ribbon, and click on any of the TabWeaver options shown at the far right!

Can TabWeaver handle large datasets?

Yes! Datasets larger than Excel’s 1,048,576 row limit must be loaded into the data model and summarized using PowerPivot. Tableau also caps TabWeaver’s queries at 1gb. If you exceed that threshold, though, please message us—we’d love to know what in the world you’re up to.

Can other people open my Excel workbook even if they don’t have TabWeaver?

Of course! TabWeaver has no impact on how you share your workbooks.

Does TabWeaver respect Row Based Security?

Yes! Not much more to say, really. R-E-S-P-E-C-T.

How much coding do I have to do to make the Tab thing weave stuff?

None. Zilch. Nada. If you’ve used Tableau, you’ll find using TabWeaver pleasantly familiar. Never worked in Tableau? No problem—we designed TabWeaver to be more simple than using a pivot table. Give it a try and tell us if you agree.

I can use TabWeaver for free? What’s the catch?

Mahi mahi, or New Zealand king salmon if you’re lucky (I love sushi). But seriously, no catch. It’s catchless. Entirely catch-free. 100% certified uncaught. If someone threw a ball, it’d fly right by. It’s not even allowed to play Catchphrase.

We designed TabWeaver to be accessible for students, individuals, and folks who just need some help getting their Tableau data into Excel. Our Free edition offers most of TabWeaver’s features without limitations for exactly that reason. When you graduate to working with a team or need to deploy TabWeaver at scale, our simple and flexible licensing plans ready when you are.

Does clicking the ‘Refresh All’ button in Excel refresh my TabWeaver queries?

No. Refresh TabWeaver queries using the Refresh button in the TabWeaver section of your Data ribbon. Licensed users can also set queries to refresh automatically each time your workbook is opened.

Can other people refresh my TabWeaver queries?

Yes, other people can refresh your TabWeaver queries if:
1. They have TabWeaver installed with an active paid license
AND
2. They are able to sign in to your Tableau Cloud site and have permission to connect to the data source used in your query

TabWeaver respects your Tableau Cloud permissions—users can only query data that they would otherwise be able to access from Tableau Cloud.
